The Illinois SOcicIy.

The entertainment and sociable given
by the natives of Illinois at Good Tenn.
plars' Hall last night was very enjoya.
BILE affair. Those who attended did
not do SO for the purpose of hearing
music and recitation mainly, but to meet
with and talk to people from. their own
State. Most of the programme was i'm.
promptu, and in consequence no one
knew what was to be the next or when
the end would come. The exercises
commenced with a pantomime behind a
sheet stretched across one end OF the
hall. The story told by the pantomime
was one OF love between a maid and a
farmer. After any amount of trouble
with the father of the maid, the pair
were made one. 1t was very amusing,
if not instructive. MIR. Ward gave
piano solo which was quite pleasing.
Mrs. King sang some old-time songs,
which were received with vociferous ap
plause. Mr.. Hawthorne, who has an
exc llent bass voice, sang several songs,
accomp ,nied on the piano, AID Mr..
Huber favored the audience with an op.
cratic air and an English song. The en-.
teri lainment closed with an amusing
recitation by Miss Alice Richardson.
These sociable meetings take place once
/ month at the hall, and number of
,ew members are obtained at each.

A Crowded House at me Matinee
Yesterday

hCstNh~S
The matinee of the ''Cradle Songs OF
MANY Nations" at Turnverein Hall, yes.
terday afternoon, was much more sue
cessful than on Friday evening. The
hall was filed to its utmost capacity.
extra chairs being provided tor the
people who arrived late. = The pro-
gramme presented was the same as on
the evening previous, and it called
forth a great deal of just applause. I'm
der the calcium lights the rich dresses
worn by some of the young ladies ap-
peared to great advantage. especially in
those scenes from the southern climes.
In the prayer of the Innocents Mrs,
II. C. Dean took the part OF the nun,
and Miss Minnie Brown, as nurse girl,
sang "Now l hay me down to Sleep"
Mrs. Governor Stoneman took the part
of the mother in the English cradle
song aud Mrs. Huff sang the lullaby.
Prof. Arnold kutner and Miss Meyers
were warmly received in their Der
ceuse" for piano and violin. Mrs. Hooker
anu MIS-. huLbuu WSio thO Aouy 10
te-s in the Scotch Cradle song, and MIR.
Hutchinson of Aberdeen and Mr.. Me-
Gregor Mcdonald assumed the male
characters. Miss Maudie Reese danced
the "Highlaud Fling" accompanied by
Mr.. McGregor Mcdonald on the bag
pine. Miss Paul ne Josephs danced the
difficult "Scarf" dance. In the japanese
Tableau Mrs. Hooker sang the lul.
laby, and Miss Nina Page and Miss
Alice Gavitt appeared charmipglv In
the Mikaio costume. Mrs. Norton
sang "My Love has Come to Me"
The Breton tableau was represented by
the Misses Pendleton, and the Spanish
cradle song was chermingly portrayed
by the Misses Ballade. Miss Ella Carter
sang a number frow Mendelssohn. The
Chinese picture was formed by the same
ladies who presented the prayer of the
Innocents," and Mr.. and Mrs. Castillon
danced in the Spanish style. The Irish
character was given by Mrs. Lee and
Miss Dupuy. Mrs. Hooker sang the
lullaby. Miss Leila Breed sang the
Egyptian song with Miss Fannie Mau-
rice and Miss Alice Severance as slave
girls. There is probability that there
will be repititon of the entertainment,
and its projectors have every reason to
be proud of their success.

Am u sements,

Herrmann's engagement at the Grand
Opera House came to q conclusion last
night, after a very successful week. En-.
tertainments of like character to that of
Herrmann's generally call out the peo.
pie who like to be amused by feats of
sleight of.hand and magic. Hermann is
SO artistic in all that he does that it is no
wonder he draws good houses wherever
he goes. He is widely known; in fact
is there scarcely any one in this country
who has not heard of him. He is con.
stantly adding new tricks to his already
almost mex haustible repertoire, and the
next time he visits this coast it is prob
able he will have something more wond.
erful than his disappearing woman.
The sale for the Booth season was
very large again yesterday, and the
chances for obtaining a seat anywhere in
the house at any of bis performances are
growing quite slim. While there was no
rush yesterday, there was a constant
string of buyers, and the management
announces that Thursday night, Hamlet,
is entirely gone. Those who desire to
90 SO can see Hamlet at the Saturday |
matinee. While the good seats for that
occasion are all sold, there are some
numbers still left, but they will prob.
aoiy be gone by tomorrow noon. There
is every indication that the Booth season
Will be the largest ever seen in this city.
